Training Objectives

Classify burns by degree and determine the appropriate cooling methods

Treat minor abrasions and blisters while preventing infection

Course Overview

Skin injuries are among the most frequent workplace accidents, ranging from minor scrapes to debilitating burns.

This course provides a clear roadmap for treating thermal, chemical, and friction-related injuries. You will learn how to distinguish between first-, second-, and third-degree burns and why the "cool but not cold" rule is vital for recovery. We also cover the delicate process of managing blisters—including when to leave them intact—and the proper way to clean abrasions to prevent infection. Understanding what substances to avoid, such as ointments on severe burns or ice on delicate tissue, is just as important as knowing what to apply. Equip yourself with the skills to promote fast healing and minimize scarring for yourself and others.

No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

No. You should never apply butter, oils, or ointments to a serious burn, as these can trap heat in the skin and increase the risk of infection. Stick to cool running water for initial treatment.

Generally, no. A blister's skin acts as a natural, sterile bandage. You should only drain a blister if it is in an area where it will likely rupture on its own, and even then, it must be done with sterile equipment.

You should cool the burn under clean, cool (not cold) running water for at least 10 to 20 minutes, or until the pain subsides.

Seek immediate help if the burn is larger than the victim’s palm, involves the face, hands, feet, or genitals, appears charred or white (third-degree), or is caused by chemicals or electricity.

Wash the wound with mild soap and plenty of water to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using strong antiseptics like hydrogen peroxide or iodine directly on the wound as they can damage healing tissue.
